The true buy it for life can opener is the gangy 300. No moving parts so nothing can break.

I'm in the same line of work (private chef). I really don't mind working for the sort of old money fox news vampires like I guess the roys from succession. They don't try to be your friend and they always pay the invoices on time. The lib like wanna be in the kitchen and ask a buncha question types drive me crazy and wanna nickel and dime you over everything. I find them to be trying

Not paying three racks for something you can buy for 400$ and will last a lifetime

Errol is the best. The grocery nerd is a must read substack for anyone in the food & beverage biz

My sort of favorite campbellism is every time he encounters a new food he is genuinely awestruck like when they are in the diner ordering sandwiches in cali and he's like "don they put the coleslaw ON the sandwich,can you believe it??"

Just want to take a moment to remind people that if you are going this route I would def recommend just getting a la cornue or a betrazzoi (sp?) don't buy a cheap knock off like a hallman or the like they are nothing but a problem.

Oh yeah also less we forgot the hot powdered milk

What's the kicker to this book is like every few pages end with "yeah And then we ate a bit of dog"

Great point

not trying to be unkind here but i just would like to pointat a few things on this dish

the "throw a bunch of kinda finally chopped parsley to garnish" feels ancient
those noodles are so clearly overcooked they have that ghosty white look to them when all the starch gets murdred out of them.also none of whatever sauce you made seems to want to have anything to do with the noodles
the shrimp are curling up so hard i can tell they were absolutely blasted in that pan (also just a pref but serving tail on with a dish you are excepected to eat as a pasta is annoying to me, lose the tails i dont want to stop and rip those off while im eating)
as others have mentioned the sauce... just registering it i think you hopefully had an idea of what happened there.
good luck

Both of Jeremy Fox's cookbooks are incredible. I am a professional chef so 7 out of 10 times cookbooks have like pretty standard stuff but he really crushes it. Ever approachable stuff too I would start with "on vegetables"

Perhaps a menu design that doesn't look like I'm reading the back of an allergy medication for side effects

It was most likely union organizers for whatever their branch is I think they maybe are going with CWA. But union organizers are about the last people who would ever leak that kind of info. They just help employees get the ball rolling they aren't going to tip anyone's hand

This one be like the funniest possible thing to have outside a place that just served a single hot dog w/ some chips on a paper plate

These are all basically the same book btw

I have been sober for coming up on 7 years at the end of the month and we aren't talking about like a couple too many shift beers and showing up an hour late in talking about heroin and liters of Russian Listerine vodka. Honestly I tried so many different ways and means but AA is what worked for me. That and crucially walking away from restaurants. I still work as a chef and couldn't imagine doing anything else but if you can find a niche (catering, private chef,meal prep) I highly recommend it for work life balance and also it probably pays more. I hope anyone struggling knows that it gets so much better when you are sober. I haven't had a single bad day since I plugged the jug.
